5 Questions: Epistemology
This has already hit several places in the blogosphere, but here goes:
Another book in the 5 questions series is now available: Epistemology: 5 Questions. Big names in epistemology (Dretske, Hintikka, Sosa, Williamson, etc.) answer questions about the direction and future of epistemology.
Other books in the series were very enjoyable (although the interviewees typically vary in how much effort they put into their answers). The best answers are inspiring and present the field in a historical narrative, typically from the career perspective of the philosopher answering. van Benthem was someone who managed to do both things in an earlier answer. It would be great if people new to writing in this format followed his example.
